How can I get you like a product, a box

Speaker 2 (02:05):
Do you guys like Christmas? I like Chris, you like Christmas? Movies?
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Can give you some fun facts about Christmas movies. For example,
Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer stop motion in nineteen sixty four,
all done in Japan, All done in Japan.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
They did that in Japan. Yeah, what do you know?
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Jim Carrey was supposed to play Elf, not Will Ferrell.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Jim Carrey. Yes.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
The movie, the classic movie that everybody knows, It's a
Wonderful Life, was a total box office flop when it
was released in nineteen six, total box office flop.
Speaker 5 (02:43):
That's like, I think I read somewhere that that's like
the best feel good Christmas movie ever, like, quote unquote,
that's like the one.
Speaker 6 (02:50):
There's a lot of shows that are like that too,
Like in their prime they're like but then it's syndication.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
They come back and it's like, oh, this is good.
So I wonder when that movie popped off.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Eight year old Natalie Wood in the movie Miracle on
thirty Fourth Street actually believed that the guy who played
Santa Claus was actually Santa Claus. It's funny if you
look at that movie, his beard is way too short
to be It's way too for the beard.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Will Ferrell actually ate so much sugar while filming Elf
that he had trouble sleeping. It is a true story.
John Candy was in the movie Home Alone. Remember they
were trying to get home and the mom rode back
with him in the back of a van.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Ye yes, yes.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
And he shot all of his scenes for Home Alone
in long one long, twenty three hour day on the set.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
I probably did that though, too, Like can I just
be here one day and then just not have to
be here again?
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Twenty three hours is long, long day, long day in
the movie A Christmas Story, Little Uh what's his name?
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Anyway? The kid?
Speaker 4 (03:50):
What's the I don't know. You love that movie?
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Ralph Ralphie Helphie? Was that true? I just gets it?
Is rocky? Yeah to me.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
He recently revealed that on the set there's a scene
where he has to do a chewing tobacco and he's
spitting out chewing tobacco because he's thinking he's a cowboy.
Somebody gave him real chewing tobacco on the set, and
it made him sick. Because if you were ever a
kid that has tried chewing tobacco, it will make you sick.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Is that when you tried chewing tobacco.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
I was about twelve or thirteen years old. I tried
chewing tobacco.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Didn't know you're not supposed to swallow the juices.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
I wanted to die. Wanted to die. It was terrible.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Another one vincent price was considered for the part of
the villain, mister Potter and It's a Wonderful Life. The
Grinch was black and white in the original Doctor Seus's book,
but the director of the TV show in nineteen sixty
six decided, let's not make him black and white, Let's
make him green exactly.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
Oh now I want to see original Grinch.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
I'm going to go.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Have you guys heard about because I heard this forever
agoing and just popped up on my feet. Jim Carrey
when he had to play the Grinch, he went through
basically like a CIA initiative, like torture training, because it
felt like he was being buried alive every time he
had to put on the Grinch outfall.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Oh my yeah, it was like hours and hours.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
He said, like the first day it was eight hours,
and he like went into his trailer, punched a hole
in the wall or kicked a hole in the wall
and was like, I can't do this.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
It's very true. He worked with a CIA specialist who
trained agents to survive torture in order to get through
the painful makeup process. Wow, that is absolutely true. And
then one more little fun fact rude Alph the Red
Nose Reindeer. It's not really a movie fun fact, but
it was created as a advertisement for Montgomery Wards.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
If you don't know what Montgomery Wards was. It was
kind of the J. C.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Penny of its day, kind of the Seers of its day.
And they put together a pamphlet of all about Santa's
Rain Deer. And then they asked this songwriter, can you
write a song? Rudolph's original name was not Rudolph, was
it Clarence Reginald Reginald or Rollo the Red Nose rein
(06:14):
deer nose rain.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Yeah, I'm perfect.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Rudolph is perfouse and Christmas fun facts for you on
have you made a donation yet?
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Make a donation? So we can brag about you.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
And when you make a donation, text in and tell
us who if you want to make it like you know,
dedicate it to your kids, or in honor of your kids,
or in honor of your mama who was always giving you.
Moms make Christmas. Am I right about that? Moms really
make Christmas. Dads are there to like, you know, put
the star on top of the tree or carry the
tree up from downstairs or whatever it is. But moms
really make Christmas. Do a Christmas wish, I'm a donation
(06:49):
in honor of your mama, then text me at KDWB
one and let us know your name and that it's
in honor of your mama.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
This text wants to know will they match any amount?
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Forty thousand dollars I'm gonna I'm gonna hold them to that.
Yet if somebody matt yes, if they let's say any
amount yes, And I mean what do you mean by that?
You mean five hundred easily, one thousand, easily five thousand, yes,
that we're gonna hold them to that. Treasure Island is
like very generous. They will definitely help us out. Go
donate now while you're thinking about it.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
We'll be right.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
Not a single donation. You can't make this stuff up.
Not a single donation. So I know that people are busy.
I knew you get stuff going on, but it is
I don't know. What do you What do you want
me to do? You want me to hold my breath
until we get donations for Christmas? Wish? I guarantee I
can hold my breath longer than you, guys, I guarantee
I can. What about underwater, It doesn't matter whether it's
underwater or not.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
I think it's tougher and I can definitely hold my
breath longer underwater than.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
We did that one time where we stuck our.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Head in a bucket. We see all the stuff we've done.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
I was reading there's something on like the History of
Woodbury something page, and there's a big article they're doing
on Facebook about KTWB And because KDWB used to be
in Woodbury kind of where Tamarack Village shopping center is
kind of that used to be nothing but antelope and
cactus out there, and then KTWGB sat out there by itself,
(08:15):
and I was reading some of the stories that KATWGB
used to do. There was a dj that worked in
the morning on KTWB, and he declared himself Emperor of Wisconsin,
and he said he was going to take over Wisconsin.
And I don't know how far. His name was Charlie Brown,
stolen from the Peanuts character. But that's what DJs do.
(08:35):
And so he declared himself Emperor of Wisconsin and decided
he's going to take it over.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
I don't know what he did.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
And then they used to go out in like a
slow moving car or float and clog up traffic and
hand out bumper stickers to drivers and then somebody else
got suspended or something. I don't remember exactly, but man,
these radio DJs are wacky. It was the sixties. In
the sixties, yeah, wow. But that's where KATIEBB used to be.
(09:04):
That's why it's called radio drive because there was nothing.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Did you not know that?
Speaker 4 (09:08):
No?
Speaker 1 (09:08):
I ninety four and radio drive And that's Katie able
to be used to sit out there by kind of
like all by. It's lonesome, huh. And then they did
get the timeline wrong. They said they moved to the
Minneapolis in nineteen ninety four. I think they moved around
eighty six or eighty seven something like that.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
But for years, and here we are now in this
glimmering tower of stealing glass, sixty story revolving space needle studio,
without a single donation today.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
For Christmas wish on match day fumbling.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
So let's make a donation if you can even ten
dollars and then let me know. Jenny's tracking these donations.
And you got nutting so far, I've got nothing fun, nothing, okay, despicable.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Please make a donation.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
That's one of the things that we are here for
today in Treasure Island is matching, So please go do that.
In a bizarre our sign of the times, Ozimpic is
now hanging from the Christmas tree. Yes, a popular Christmas
ornament this year is a trinket shaped like a syringe
of ozimpic.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Lord, that's weird.
Speaker 4 (10:11):
That's a weird choice.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Although I think it is weird.
Speaker 6 (10:14):
I've been seeing in like the Walmart isles, the weird
ornaments that are shaped like a Dorito's bag or I
love that they're just so random, like well, I like that.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Well, I mean think about that, like in generations past,
it was like a ball at Christmas ball and then
your kids homemade ornaments and now it's fun stuff a
Dorito's bag.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
Hilarious.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
I love that.
Speaker 6 (10:33):
What are you going to do with the Colonel Sanders
KFC ornament?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Laugh at it? Yeah, that's character. That's funny. I saw
on the other day. It was a glimmering hot dog. Dog.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
Just got you one because there's one apatina that's of
the our cookies that we love, those sugar cookies with.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
The frost seed.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Yes, the ones in the clamshell tin.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Yeah, but it kind of looks like it was just
like a miniature version of it, and it didn't really
look like an ornament because it.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Was literally plastic. Well liked for Christmas.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
Ornament.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
In other hold on, there was a couple of more
things I wanted to pass along to you on you

Speaker 2 (11:09):
I have to scroll.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Here we go things that make us feel cozy this
time of the year. We all love cozy, and here
we go. Curling up on the couch feels cozy. Layers
of blankets. A DJ's soothing voice made that up. But
(11:31):
I'm being soothing right now, enjoying the quiet. Yeah, sleeping in,
making fresh tea, coffee or hot chocolate makes you feel cozy.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
You do that every day, Dave I do.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
It's on my Instagram story this morning. Yeah, I saw it.
I was making an espresso and I put it on
my story.
Speaker 5 (11:53):
I am thrilled because today, like I often have things
that I do pretty much every night. Today, after I
like get off of work, go home. I don't have
to go anywhere. Oh that's a rare day. And it's
supposed to snow a bush.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Well, that's next on the list. Things that make you
feel cozy this time of the year, not leaving home,
watching the cold, snowy weather outside, hit the spot lighting candles.
I have a candle on my desk. I don't know
what scent it is, tangerine, I don't know it's orange.
I'm not sure what it is, but I lit it

last night as I was working on Christmas wish and
it was just cozy.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I have a cozy voice on you like the cozy
voice all the time.

Speaker 4 (13:08):
I think they're starting to come through now, are they?
Speaker 3 (13:11):
Because but I'm just double checking with some people who
have donated to verify because the problem is is that
the timeframe of this is messed up on the action.

Speaker 2 (13:51):
Always be like, I mean, he was perfect. There was
literally my dream man. But his shoe was untied.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
That means that means he doesn't pay attention to the
small details.

little bit later. By the way, thank you, thank you,
thank you, thank you, thank you. We are now getting

Is that with the match or no?
Speaker 4 (14:52):
No, that's not all beautiful.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Yeah, with the matches sixteen it's crazy. We had a
request a little while ago for the single loong song.
By the way, don't think you're off the hook, because
if you don't continue to donate, Daddy Bear will continue
to growl and Daddy Bear will continue to fuss until
we get more donations.
Speaker 5 (15:11):
Wondering why you kept putting your hand in a honey
jar over there, I was like, that seems sticky, but okay.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
We're gonna sing a long song of the day. This
is a great one.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
You never hear this song anymore, but it's everywhere. From

Eminem had this strangest request from Kitlin's Win's let once
upon a time, because she's on this promotional tour for Avatar,

shave his butt cheeks once because they were booked on
a Saturday Night Live episode in two thousand and four,
and she said, Eminem asked me to shave his bottom.
I said, I'm sorry, I don't do personal grooming. I'm
not going to go in with a big razor and
(16:51):
get your crack.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Love.

Leonardo DiCaprio has been named Entertainer of the Year by
Time magazine, and he said the way he balances his
fame with privacy is that I simply I think my
simple philosophy is only get out there and do something
when you have something to say or you have something

you possibly can. He says he doesn't want people to
(17:21):
get sick of him.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
So starting starting right now, starting right now, Okay, I
want to thank Fido's Pantry over in Chan happening because
they heard about Christmas wish and they're a big pet
supply pet food company, and so Sarah and Andy, they
are the owners, charming local people, and they said, what
can we do to help out? And I said, well,
we have a wish here that's got a dog and
a couple of cats. I went over there yesterday expecting
(01:22):
like a bag of cat food, a bag of dog food,
maybe a bag of kitty litter. Holy buckets, I had
to I threw out my back carrying about five hundred
dollars No lie, uh, carrying dog food out to the
car with Sarah's help. She's stronger than me. She did
a lot of the lifting. But shout out to like
the local companies who help us out. And we just
(01:44):
really appreciate all the offers from oil changes to pizzas

How can I get you like a product, a box
of things to bring the easiest way to do it
is just to donate. Just to donate online on katiewb
dot com, slash wish.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Do you guys like Christmas? I like Chris, you like Christmas? Movies?
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Can give you some fun facts about Christmas movies. For example,
Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer stop motion in nineteen sixty four,
all done in Japan, All done in Japan.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
They did that in Japan. Yeah, what do you know?
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Jim Carrey was supposed to play Elf, not Will Ferrell.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Jim Carrey. Yes.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
The movie, the classic movie that everybody knows, It's a
Wonderful Life, was a total box office flop when it
was released in nineteen six, total box office flop.
Speaker 5 (02:43):
That's like, I think I read somewhere that that's like
the best feel good Christmas movie ever, like, quote unquote,
that's like the one.
Speaker 6 (02:50):
There's a lot of shows that are like that too,
Like in their prime they're like but then it's syndication.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
They come back and it's like, oh, this is good.
So I wonder when that movie popped off.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Eight year old Natalie Wood in the movie Miracle on
thirty Fourth Street actually believed that the guy who played
Santa Claus was actually Santa Claus. It's funny if you
look at that movie, his beard is way too short
to be It's way too for the beard.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Will Ferrell actually ate so much sugar while filming Elf
that he had trouble sleeping. It is a true story.
John Candy was in the movie Home Alone. Remember they
were trying to get home and the mom rode back
with him in the back of a van.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Ye yes, yes.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
And he shot all of his scenes for Home Alone
in long one long, twenty three hour day on the set.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
I probably did that though, too, Like can I just
be here one day and then just not have to
be here again?
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Twenty three hours is long, long day, long day in
the movie A Christmas Story, Little Uh what's his name?
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Anyway? The kid?
Speaker 4 (03:50):
What's the I don't know. You love that movie?
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Ralph Ralphie Helphie? Was that true? I just gets it?
Is rocky? Yeah to me.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
He recently revealed that on the set there's a scene
where he has to do a chewing tobacco and he's
spitting out chewing tobacco because he's thinking he's a cowboy.
Somebody gave him real chewing tobacco on the set, and
it made him sick. Because if you were ever a
kid that has tried chewing tobacco, it will make you sick.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Is that when you tried chewing tobacco.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
I was about twelve or thirteen years old. I tried
chewing tobacco.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Didn't know you're not supposed to swallow the juices.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
I wanted to die. Wanted to die. It was terrible.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Another one vincent price was considered for the part of
the villain, mister Potter and It's a Wonderful Life. The
Grinch was black and white in the original Doctor Seus's book,
but the director of the TV show in nineteen sixty
six decided, let's not make him black and white, Let's
make him green exactly.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
Oh now I want to see original Grinch.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
I'm going to go.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Have you guys heard about because I heard this forever
agoing and just popped up on my feet. Jim Carrey
when he had to play the Grinch, he went through
basically like a CIA initiative, like torture training, because it
felt like he was being buried alive every time he
had to put on the Grinch outfall.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Oh my yeah, it was like hours and hours.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
He said, like the first day it was eight hours,
and he like went into his trailer, punched a hole
in the wall or kicked a hole in the wall
and was like, I can't do this.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
It's very true. He worked with a CIA specialist who
trained agents to survive torture in order to get through
the painful makeup process. Wow, that is absolutely true. And
then one more little fun fact rude Alph the Red
Nose Reindeer. It's not really a movie fun fact, but
it was created as a advertisement for Montgomery Wards.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
If you don't know what Montgomery Wards was. It was
kind of the J. C.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Penny of its day, kind of the Seers of its day.
And they put together a pamphlet of all about Santa's
Rain Deer. And then they asked this songwriter, can you
write a song? Rudolph's original name was not Rudolph, was
it Clarence Reginald Reginald or Rollo the Red Nose rein
(06:14):
deer nose rain.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Yeah, I'm perfect.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Rudolph is perfouse and Christmas fun facts for you on

the star on top of the tree or carry the
tree up from downstairs or whatever it is. But moms
really make Christmas. Do a Christmas wish, I'm a donation

Speaker 4 (07:46):
We did that one time where we stuck our.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Head in a bucket. We see all the stuff we've done.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
I was reading there's something on like the History of
Woodbury something page, and there's a big article they're doing
on Facebook about KTWB And because KDWB used to be
in Woodbury kind of where Tamarack Village shopping center is
kind of that used to be nothing but antelope and
cactus out there, and then KTWGB sat out there by itself,
(08:15):
and I was reading some of the stories that KATWGB
used to do. There was a dj that worked in
the morning on KTWB, and he declared himself Emperor of Wisconsin,
and he said he was going to take over Wisconsin.
And I don't know how far. His name was Charlie Brown,
stolen from the Peanuts character. But that's what DJs do.
(08:35):
And so he declared himself Emperor of Wisconsin and decided
he's going to take it over.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
I don't know what he did.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
And then they used to go out in like a
slow moving car or float and clog up traffic and
hand out bumper stickers to drivers and then somebody else
got suspended or something. I don't remember exactly, but man,
these radio DJs are wacky. It was the sixties. In
the sixties, yeah, wow. But that's where KATIEBB used to be.
(09:04):
That's why it's called radio drive because there was nothing.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Did you not know that?
Speaker 4 (09:08):
No?
Speaker 1 (09:08):
I ninety four and radio drive And that's Katie able
to be used to sit out there by kind of
like all by. It's lonesome, huh. And then they did
get the timeline wrong. They said they moved to the
Minneapolis in nineteen ninety four. I think they moved around
eighty six or eighty seven something like that.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
But for years, and here we are now in this
glimmering tower of stealing glass, sixty story revolving space needle studio,
without a single donation today.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
For Christmas wish on match day fumbling.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
So let's make a donation if you can even ten

In a bizarre our sign of the times, Ozimpic is
now hanging from the Christmas tree. Yes, a popular Christmas
ornament this year is a trinket shaped like a syringe
of ozimpic.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Lord, that's weird.

ornaments that are shaped like a Dorito's bag or I
love that they're just so random, like well, I like that.
Speaker 1 (10:23):

like a miniature version of it, and it didn't really
look like an ornament because it.

Yeah, with the matches sixteen it's crazy. We had a
request a little while ago for the single loong song.

to growl and Daddy Bear will continue to fuss until
we get more donations.

Wondering why you kept putting your hand in a honey
jar over there, I was like, that seems sticky, but okay.
